Biomedicine is the most dynamically developing sphere of human activity. Almost all scientific achievements in the field of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, IT technologies find application in healthcare. Timely introduction of advanced technologies in medicine is one of the tasks of our Institute. The price of lagging behind in this area is human lives! Medicine is not only love for people, but the desire and ability to help them.
